Using the Remote Control Correctly
• Point the remote control at the REMOTE SENSOR located on the unit.
• When there is a strong ambient light source, the performance of the infrared
REMOTE SENSOR may be degraded, causing unreliable operation.

feet (6 meters).
To Change Battery
ATTENTION 1. Open the battery door.
Remove the plastic sheet
before operating the
remote control.
2. Insert one CR2025 (3V) size battery.
Battery Replacement
When the battery becomes weak, the operating distance of the remote
control is greatly reduced and you will need to replace it.
Note: If the remote control is not going to be used for a long time, remove
the battery to avoid damage caused by battery leakage corrosion.
WARNINGS:
• Do not dispose of battery in fire; battery may explode or leak.
• Battery shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire
or the like.
• Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only
with the same or equivalent type.
CAUTION: When discarding batteries, environmental problems must
be considered and local rules or laws governing the disposal of these
batteries must be strictly followed.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Warnings:
• The AC adapter is used as disconnect device and it should remain readily
operable during intended used. In order to disconnect the apparatus from
the mains completely, the AC adapter should be disconnected from the
mains socket outlet completely.
• Minimum 10 cm (4 inches) distances around the apparatus for sufficient
ventilations.
• Batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or
the like.
• The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation openings
with items such as newspaper, table-cloths, curtains, etc.
• No naked flame sources such as lighted candles should be placed on the
apparatus.
On Safety
As the laser beam used in this compact disc player could be harmful to the
eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the casing. Refer servicing to qualified
personnel only.
• Do not put any foreign objects in the disc compartment. If you do so, the
laser beam interlock may be defeated allowing the laser to remain on when
the lid is opened.
• Do not put any foreign objects in the DC IN jack. Should any objects or
liquids fall into the unit, disconnect the power supply and have the unit
checked by qualified personnel before any further operation.
On Operation
Since the CD system offers a wide dynamic range, the peaks of the high level
inputs are recorded with high fidelity, and the noise level is very low. Do not
turn up the volume while listening to a part of the disc with no audio signals
or very low level inputs. If you do so, the speakers may be damaged when the
peak level of the sound is played. The lens of the laser should be kept clean.
Do not touch the lens. If you do so, the lens may be damaged and the unit will
not operate correctly.
On Use
Never use the unit where it would be subject to:
- Heat sources such as radiators or air ducts.
- Direct sunlight.
- Excessive dust.
- Moisture or rain.
- Mechanical vibration or shock.
- Uneven surface.
• Do not place any heavy objects on top of the unit.
• When the unit is used with an AC power adapter, do not wrap the unit in
a cloth, blanket, etc. If you do so, the temperature inside and outside the
unit may rise considerably, resulting in malfunctioning of the unit.
• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed
in a very damp room, the moisture may condense on the lens inside the
unit. Should this occur, the unit will not operate. In this case, remove the
disc and leave the unit in a warm place for several hours until the moisture
evaporates.
• For the unit to operate at its best, it should not be subject to temperatures
below 41°F (5°C) or above 95°F (35°C).
